Queer Eye’s Jonathan Van Ness has represented the second coming of Christ‘s hair since Netflix rebooted the make-over show. We have been worshipping at the altar of Jonathan, ever since.

Now, during an interview with The Cut, the show’s grooming expert has revealed the secrets behind his lush long hair. Prior to finding fame on the reality show, Jonathan worked as a hairdresser for over ten years in Los Angeles and has certainly picked up a few good tips.

Rule number one? “Not over-washing your hair gives it a nice shine. Washing your hair every day dulls it out.”

It also turns out your bedding can really affect your style, “Silk pillowcases help keep it shiny,” the thirty-one-year-old confided. Finally, some justification for expensive bedding, thank you Jonathan, you babe!

But when it comes to product Jonathan swears by Wonder Worker by Shu Uemura, Aveda Brilliant Spray On Shine and Kevin Murphy Shimmer Shine. BRB, we are off to the shops to stock up, immediately!

Aside from his haircare secrets, Jonathan revealed that he actually lives in the same apartment as Queer Eye’s dish of the day, Antoni. Their neighbourly love goes further than borrowing the odd cup of sugar, as Antoni cooks for Jonathan on a weekly basis.

Room for another one, Antoni?
